I have a friend that uses a .300 on his "brush" stand (max 50 yard shot). He and I also both have 6.8's as our main hunting rifle. There is no doubt left when you hit a deer with the 6.8 - it's going down hard.

Mine is a Stag 7H that puts 3 Hornady SST's in a 3/4" circle at 100 yards on the sled. More accurate than I'll ever be...

I ended up buying a few lowers and ended up building a few . I built a 300blk with a 10'' barrel and arm brace , two 6.8 spc with 16'' barrels. I would use the 300 if under 100 yards but definatly will be using the 6.8spc this year.

I'm NOT shooting a .300 Blackout, I'm shooting a .25/45 Sharps upper. It spits an 87 grain pointed soft point bullet at 2,950 feet per second out of the 18 inch barrel. And yes, this was checked with my chronograph set up 10 feet in front of the gun, with five shot average. That's close to .25-06 performance out of an AR platform.

We mounted a Redfield 3x9 Accu-Plex scope on Dan's rifle today. Inside of three shots, we had it shooting 1.25" groups using factory ammo. I'm thinking that with a little tinkering of the loads, I can get it shooting a little tighter than that even. This should be a pretty good rifle out to 300 yards on whitetail size animals...

A friend of mine just bought a Sharps .25-45 upper. I built an Anderson stripped lower and built it. Putting the upper on makes for one danged fine looking AR rifle that should kill deer out to 300 yards....

It's a fine piece of hunting equipment that should be interesting to shoot in a couple of days....
